Fuck.

I find Thursday (for this week) and Thursday next (for next week) adequate and am seldom called on for clarification, seems to follow the pattern of the rule (thanks for that) but is more economical.

Thank you kindly.

There was a lovely volume I had that was an English translation where every facing page the left was French and the right was English, lent it out, never to return, sigh. Learnt most of my poor grasp of French from it. If anyone knows I would highly appreciate the details…

Why not both? With insider trading profit each way.

China’s coming to eat your lunch triopoly, better make what you can before ~2028 (likely earlier for DDR4). They’re going at it hard, and all the way back up the supply chain.

‘potentially unlawful activity’ like constraining supply or letting Scam Altman corner the wafer market without any way to actually use it. South Korea could just rule that an illegal (anti-competitive) contract and the RAM / SSD crisis would likely be over, or at least significantly mitigated.

Fair cop, shall look at pipepipe, wait, that’s a phone app, I like my vidja on a larger screen, You do you, I’m good :)

Kudos to you then I guess. Nice offsite backup you’re not paying for, love it. Shit, getting payed for, brilliant !

Solid. I seem to have a ~90% overlap, copying both this and the movies to my obsidian, shall do some diff / grepping later… There’s gems in there, thanks.

Sympathy for the no adblocker (moron?, but with taste), must burn.

90% of the time it works every time (OK, maybe 80), but when it does it’s great. I just let my rss queue backlog until it does. (Not on them, YT is actively rugpulling coz they hate them, which makes me like them more, shame about the electron though). Grayjay is closed, and likely questionable, but a useful backup.

Yah, it’s the EFF, they get significant latitude from their history.

Nah, I often read the comments to decide if it’s worth reading the article, and sometimes comment off that, oops, you got me. Actually maybe that is reverse order.

Guessing it’s pretty much what I expected, and I’m likely to have said much the same anyway.

Hmfhh, quite so, dropped this…

I’ve never really understood the mentality of businesses. They’re losing customers, so they bump the price to compensate, therefore losing more customers.

It’s the mentality of CEOs, MBAs and Venture Investment, line must go up this quarter, nothing else matters, we’ll be jumping out leaving suckers holding the bag before the business goes under. Scam culture, and it fucking works.

Long term strategy is dead (except for privately owned, see Valve), this is late stage capitalism baby, take what you can, give nothing back. Seems fair to do unto them.

Nice.

These things are for the nasty little surprises, more relevant for the proprietaries, but not useless on linux. They’re for the unknown unknowns, and that’s a good thing. The next supply chain vuln might bite you, and opensnitch might let you know.

Or Obtainium.

optimal solution (lol)

The older I’ve gotten (or the further into late stage capitalism), the less I’m inclined to accept “Never attribute to malice, that which can be adequately explained by incompetence” (- Napoleon, perhaps) and the more I subscribe to “Why not both?”.

Eh, it could be just a vibe code blunder, given this hit a suitably large number of others.

Which would be equally damning.
